Rationale of Equity Caps -The FDI equity caps in a sector essentially reflect the levels of control that a foreign direct Investor is permitted to exercise in a company operating within that sector. The FDI policy incorporates equity caps at broadly four levels- 26%, 49%, 51% and 74%[2]. These caps reflect the ownership/ control levels in a company, under the Companies Act, 1956. Thus, for example, any equity holding greater than 25% gives a right to block a ‘special resolution’. 49% equity represents a level just short of ownership. 51% signifies ownership and a right to pass all ordinary resolutions. 74% equity cap on FDI means that the Indian equity holders, acting in unison, can block a special resolution.
